How I made my profile:
I used Dave & Jay's amazing myspace editor .
Grace Pettis is a 21 year old singer-songwriter and full time student at St. Edward's University in Austin, TX.
Grace is excited to report that her first full-length album will be recorded this summer at Blue Rock Studios in Wimberly, TX, and produced by Billy Crockett. The expected release date for this project is September 1st, 2009. For more information, please visit http://gracesalbum.blogspot.com
The tracks you hear on this myspace page are demos made with a MacBook using the built-in mic, or with the help of Grace's friend Steven Stern.
All songs were written/arranged/performed by Grace Pettis. Grace Pettis also takes full responsibility for the guitar playing and harmonies...
